A list of possible themes for future conventions
13 years ago
General
I've noticed that cons always have themes to them which I always ignore! For Example, FAU's theme this year is Chris Christie's lack of neck* If you're doing a con or planning on doing a con, or doing a planning of a con, or planting a con, and you're having trouble coming up with a theme, Here's a bunch of themes I think would really work well for a furcon.
1. Chess
2. The Plague
3. The albino guy from Princess Bride
4. Dogs can't use doorknobs
5. The first 45 minutes of Willie Wonka's Chocolate Factory.
6. Sniff the world!
7. The last 10 minutes of Audition
8. David Bowie's crotch bulge From Labyrinth
9. The French Revolution (only the executions though)
10. The great horse shortage of 1832
11. Working Retail
12. Prune Party
13. The ghetto

24. The Federated States of Micronesia
25. Anthrocon
26. Washing Machines
27. Sweat pants
28. Bees.

Maybe Chris Christie is so angry because he doesn't have a neck. I would say we should give him one and make him happy, but to follow his mindset, it's his own damn problem, he should fix it himself and stop looking for a handout.
